SCOUTING REPORT

Slayton has played both DT and DE at Syracuse but his best fit is as a 1 gap, 3 technique DT who shoots the gap interrupting mesh points and getting QB off the spot. Solid first step vs both man and zone blocking schems. Shows good hand technique on OL reestablishing the line of scrimmage on run plays. Needs to get better with his finish but does show the ability to run down the line and secure backside. For all these tools, the effort has to be put in at the next level to be a steal on day 2 or 3.
